“I just want to give a huge shoutout to Lisa for all the amazing help she’s been for me and my dog, Angel. Since I found her on Rover, she’s been super reliable and has taken such great care of Angel this week. Lisa always sends me updates and cute pictures of Angel, which really helps me feel better while I’m at work. It’s so nice to know that my pup is being looked after in the middle of the day. I can’t thank Lisa enough for everything she’s done. If you need a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend her! Thank you, Lisa, for being there for us!”


“Vicky took great care of my cat while I was gone for the week. She was a great communicator and made sure to follow all care instructions well. She also was very dedicated in interacting with my cat during the whole visit, including her favorite toys. I have already booked her again for upcoming travel.”


“Oelun did an amazing job caring for our pets while we were away. She followed all instructions, took pictures, and kept us updated. Our pets were very comfortable with her. We recommend her to anyone with cats/dogs and will definitely rebook.”

About: Hello everyone! My name is Kamryn! I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I grew up with dogs and have watched many of my families and friends dogs as well. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or providing a cozy cuddle buddy, I treat every pup like my own. I’m reliable, attentive, & passionate about making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently working part time and also taking summer classes at UCI. I am more than happy to work a visit with your dog into my schedule! I can crate your dog if needed, give them treats, or leave them be. I can even give picture updates if you’d like! Communication is key!

About: Hello! My name is Megan. I live with my 1 year old golden retriever, Matcha, and my fiance, Zack, in our spacious Irvine apartment. We LOVE dogs, all sizes, all breeds, all personalities, and we’d love to meet and care for yours! I personally have 3 years of veterinary assistant experience, so I am no stranger to proper and safe dog handling, especially in times of emergencies. I currently work fully remote as an HR Specialist at a medical device company, so I will be home all day to watch your furry friend. We live on the first floor, so our apartment is also senior dog/disabled dog friendly. We may not have a yard, but we do have an enclosed patio, a huge grass lawn area in front of our apartment, walking trails, as well as a large dog park within our community (your pup will have LOTS of fun). Our friends and family consider us their designated dogsitter because we just love dogs so much! Looking forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care is second nature to me. I feed my dog twice a day and relieve her at least 5 times a day (2 of which are 30 minute walks or park time). I also wipe my dog’s paws every time after she goes outside. Dog walking: I keep them close on a short leash to ensure their safety, and we will always walk on the sidewalk. Dog boarding: My priority is to make your dog feel at home, safe, loved, and happy. I love to give cuddles, but if your dog doesn’t like that, that’s fine too! Your dog will be allowed on my couch and bed. Mi casa es su casa!

About: I have experience caring for small and medium-sized dogs, as well as cats. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, medication, litter box cleaning, or daily walks, I’m here to ensure your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every animal like my own because they deserve nothing less! Since I work remotely and usually finish by 2pm on weekdays, I’m available for daytime or evening walks and can stay overnight if you need a house sitter. While I can’t host pets in my home due to lease restrictions, I’m happy to provide care in your home where your pets feel most comfortable. Whether you need a midday walk, help while you’re out of town, or someone to check in on your pet, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

“Susana did a great job taking care of Pippin! She sent us a message each day along with pictures so we could see how Pippin was doing. We definitely would book her again!”

About: When I was 10 years old, I had a small black dog. That was my first time experiencing the joy of living with a pet. Seven years ago, I adopted a tabby cat who was in very poor health. He was suffering from calicivirus, feline AIDS (FIV), and severe stomatitis, which made it extremely painful for him to eat. Despite his condition, I didn’t give up on him. I took him to the vet for treatment, and after several emergency rescues and a long recovery process, he finally pulled through. That experience was both difficult and full of hope. His strength and will to live touched me deeply, and it taught me the true meaning of responsibility and love! Pet care is part of my daily life—I make time every day for feeding, walks, play, and attention. I’m used to adjusting my schedule around pets’ needs, including health care routines when necessary. Caring for animals isn’t just a task—it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I treat every pet like family, whether in my home or yours. In my home, I create a calm, safe environment with plenty of play, cuddles, and structure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines and spaces—keeping feeding, walking, and medication schedules consistent. Cleanliness, communication, and compassion are always my priorities.

“Jade has been very reliable and communicative. I feel my fur babies are in good hands.”


About: I’ve had pets of my own since I was a little girl and have always treated them with the love and respect like they deserve. I’ve raised a puppy of my own during COVID which was humbling but extremely rewarding as he is truly the best boy and now my best friend. I’ve been around dogs of all ages all my life and understand that each dog is different, each with their own personality, just like us humans. I have the love and patience it takes to understand dogs and know that it’s not always easy for them to express themselves, body language being a huge thing I look at. Owning an orange tabbycat of my own, I also have experience with understanding a cat’s needs and although they can be more skiddish, they seek and deserve just as much care and attention. I hope I have the opportunity to help you to take care of your pet in whatever way I can, and trust that they are under my safe and full supervision. I’m currently working full time but am available and eager to help you with your pets on afternoons, nights and weekends. Whatever your pet’s needs are, I’m happy to help. I live in Lake Forest and work full time in Mission Viejo, so I am willing to go anywhere in the South OC area to care for your fur babies! I have a small dog and cat of my own at home, so I can understand how much caution goes into owning and taking care of a pet. My priority is making pets feel comfortable and safe in a place where they can both have fun and relax, because we all deserve to feel that peace at home. As a pet parent, I always check that risky items are stored away so that there’s less room for error, that there’s always access to food and water (unless instructed otherwise of course!) and that fun toys are in reach!

About: I’ve had pets all my life!! I’ve pet sat many times and have a strong love for caring for animals. I’d love to walk, feed, and love on your pet :) I currently have completely open availability and would love to help you out with your pets! I have 4 of my own and will love yours just the same :) I live in an apartment community with a dog park and there are many walking trails in the area. If needed, I can come and feed your babies as well as give them love while I’m there.

“Maria is great. She’s so communicative and friendly and I’m so glad I found someone like her to trust with our cats!”


About: I grew up with a dog, and I now have a very high-energy Brussels Griffon/Yorkshire Terrier mix. I love spoiling friends' and family members' pets. I've also previously worked for a pet care service provider, so I'm very experienced with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I live in a VERY dog-friendly area, so I can accommodate pets of all activity levels, including those who frequently need to walk/run/play. I am a small business owner with flexible hours. My schedule affords the flexibility to do pet-sitting during daytime hours or, if necessary, overnight. I am available to check on pets and provide playtime and care in the comfort of the pet's home environment. I can also take pets for walks. I treat others' pets as if they are my own. I get to know their personalities and favorite things to do. I'm also attentive to each pet's individual need for attention or personal space.

About: Friendly, reliable pet sitter with 2 years of experience caring for small dogs and cats. Passionate about animals and detail-oriented, I ensure loving, safe care for your furry family members. Work 8 to 5 at home, can take pet on walk during lunch and after work. Would always be in the same room as he/she. I adapt to each pet’s unique personality—whether they’re playful and social or prefer space and quiet, I provide the care and environment that makes them feel comfortable and secure.

About: Growing up in Tennessee, my family had a running total of 10 cats and 2 dogs. Early on, the cats always outnumbered the dog(s), and the cat we got first outlasted almost everyone else. All of our cats were shorthaired, but my grandmother had a longhaired cat. I briefly took care of another longhaired cat that a friend found in his neighborhood. He couldn’t keep it and knew I had experience with cats, so he called me and I took it in until we found its owner. The dogs I grew up with were very different. We got Hook, our black labrador retriever, from a breeder. He came with a pedigree and everything. Years later, in his old age, a corgi mix showed up at our house. We weren’t able to find her owners and we ended up keeping her. I credit her with keeping Hook alive a little longer. I know how much of a difference our animals can make. I have done petsitting in the client’s home and in my own home with pets, often with multiple animals at one time. I even kept three guinea pigs for about a week in December 2023. In my previous city, I worked as a volunteer at a local animal shelter, reading to cats and dogs through a program designed to help socialize the animals. I am unable to pet sit animals in my current apartment, and would treat it as a privilege to be let in your home in any capacity. My current job is a flexible, part time, remote job that I can do from anywhere. This leaves me with a lot of availability for your pet! I am patient with animals and I never take my emotions out on them. There are times where I have had to be firm with animals, of course, (can you imagine keeping 6 cats off the counters? Or keeping our corgi mix from nipping at our black lab while she tried to herd him outside?), but I’ve never been mean or lost my temper with an animal, and our corgi was a Mess™. I can clean traditional litterboxes and have familiarity with some higher-tech ones. I understand body language cues from both dogs and cats. As the daughter of a former landlord, I understand the frustration that comes with letting someone in your home just for them to take advantage of you. Therefore, you can be certain I will maintain the utmost respect for your belongings, your home, and your pet.

About: Pet lover and work-from-home professional with a flexible schedule to give your furry friend the attention they deserve. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from small lap dogs to large, energetic breeds like huskies. I’m comfortable with a wide variety of personalities and take pride in getting to know each dog’s unique needs. With your permission, I love taking dogs on fun adventures to local parks and even beaches for some extra stimulation and playtime. Whether your pup prefers long walks, fetch sessions, or just quiet companionship, I’m patient, observant, and always focused on making them feel safe and happy. Due to my flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and walks throughout the day—whether that’s potty breaks, playtime, or even snuggles while I work. I am also an early riser (5 am), so if your dog needs an early walk, it’s no problem. At my home, I make sure the space is pet-safe, with no access to anything harmful, and I supervise closely (especially for new pets). I keep a clean environment, and I’m quick to clean up any accidents or spills. And of course, I send lots of updates so you know your pet is happy and in good hands!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I genuinely care every furry friends and want to bring kindness and fun to their life. I’ve been working from home for many years. My work hours are very flexible and it gives me the time to hangout with furry friends. I enjoy walking with dogs, taking care of them and make my time together with dogs fun and relaxing. Hope I can bring happiness to my furry friends.

Kamryn C.
“If you’re looking for a professional, reliable, and kind-hearted sitter who genuinely loves animals and keeps you in the loop every step of the way, look no further - Kamryn is the sitter both my dog and I prefer. It's clear how much care, patience, and genuine affection she has, by the thoughtful things she does without even asking. During our time away, Kamryn provides daily photos and updates, texts, snapshots of walks, playtime highlights, and even noticed and flagged a subtle change in our dog’s breathing—a level of attentiveness most sitters don't pay attention to. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a spotless house, and couldn’t be happier with the care Kamryn gives to our little guy. We will absolutely be booking her again!”
